In All His Wisdom

Look at all the lonely people

shuffling through their daily lives,

searching for that someone

with only sadness in their eyes.

Will they ever find who they need

or search from place to place?

Never realizing love

dismay worn across their face.

Will they ever find that someone

who alone will fit their style?

Or will their hearts be full of sadness

leaving them an empty smile?

Many think that there’s no hope

and that they’re sentenced to this fate,

for some reason of their own doing

and that they don’t deserve a mate.

But God in all His wisdom

has placed them for all to see,

so that we’ll recognize our fortune

and so we’ll love more gratefully.
